    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>(Tom) Gordon, who played for the Yankees in 2004 and '05, said he would prefer to address Sheffield's comments after he heard them for himself, but added: "I had a good relationship with Joe. . . . I thought I was treated fine.</div></p>

    Maybe Sheff will realize that Torre just hated him (and it had no bearing on his skin color)?</p>

    2 guys, both with reasons to be upset(both want to be Yankees) have called out Joe Torre....in his 5 decades(or more in baseball), how many african american players has Joe Torre played with or coached? More than a 1000? I dont know how many, but Ill use 1000 for the purpose of the equation....so .2% of Joe Torre's black teamates and players think hes a racist? If you were at a parade with 1000 people and 2 of them said it was raining, but you saw no rain and no one was wet, would you believe them?

    Darryl Strawberry & credible aren't exactly s<span style="font-size: 7.5pt; font-family: Verdana">ynonymous just like Sheff and class. </span></p>

    <span style="font-size: 7.5pt; font-family: Verdana">Sheff makes his buddy Barry Bonds look downright personable & diplomatic</span></p>
